AT THE HOUSE OF MOURNING.
Senator Stanford's Remains Prepared for the
Final Rites.
THE ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE FUNERAL.
It Will Be Held at Palo Alto on Next Saturday
Afternoon.
THE BODY TO BE LAID IN THE NEW MAUSOLEUM.
Messages of Condolence Received by the Widow From All Over
the Country.
A STARTLING POSSIBILITY AS TO THE VACANT SENATORSHIP.
Lieutenant-Governor Reddick May Appoint Governor Henry H. Markham
to Stanford's Place, and Thereby Succeed to the Position of Chief
Executive of the State of California.
It will be a source of profound satisfac
tion to the friends of Mrs. Stanford to
learn that she was present during her hus
band's last moments and gave him all of
the attention that the suddenness of the
summons permitted. The widow has been
in receipt of messages of condolence from
all parts of the country.
The cause nf the Senator's death was
paralysis of the heart. His end was pain
less. The remains have been embalmed
and the funeral will take place on Satur
day afternoon at Palo Alto. They will be
laid to rest by the side of those of his loved
sou in the beautiful mausoleum of the
Stanford family, which lias just been com
pleted.
Even in the presence of death political
speculation as to the successor of Senator
Stanford is not silent. The absence of the
Governor from the State places it wttain
the power of the Lieutenant-Govaruor to
appoint io the vacant position. It is more (
th:u> hinted that Lieutenant-Govornor Red
dck may take advantage of the situation
to name Governor Markham as United
States Senator and thereby succeed to the
gubernatorial chair.
THE LAST MOMENTS.
Senator Stanford was not found dead in
his bed by his valet. Mrs. Stanford was
with him at the supreme moment and saw
her husband die. The valet, Edward
Lareey, was called at once, but when he
entered the room the end had come and
the Senator was dead.
Mrs. Stanford, who occupied an adjoin
ing apartment, was awakened just before

midnight by what she thought was the
unnatural breathing of ncr husband. She
noticed, too, that he was unusually rest
less, and rising hastily went to his bedside.
She saw that he had thrown the bed
clothes partly off him, and he seemed to
be trying to
She thought he was only suffering from
Boma disturbing dream.
"Are you dreaming, Leland?" she asked
him. never for an instant suspecting the
awful truth.
The millionaire raised his head slightly
and then It dropped back heavily on the
pillow. There were two gasps and a gur-
Rle in the throat and the widow was alone
with her dead husband in the beautiful
house at Menlo Park.
Mrs. Stanford did not realize that he
was beyond help. She rang for the valet
and the man, who sleeps in another room
close by, sprang from his bed and ran into
the death-chamber. He placed his hand
on the Senator's forehead, put his ear to
his mouth and then told Mrs. Stanford
that his master was dead.
"Go get a physician instantly," she re
plied.
All was commotion instantly in that
ordinarily peaceful household. The inmates
and servants were immediately aroused
nnd the coachman was ordered to drive at
once to Menlo Park and bring back with
liim Dr. Stallard.
Another man was ordered to go to Menlo
Park and send the fastest team in the
placo to bring Captain N. T. Smitn, the
treasurer of the Southern Pacific Company,
from San Carlos, six miles distaut. James
Hogan hitched up his team ana drove to

i in twenty-five minutes.
It was 1 o'clock in the mornine when Dr.
Stallard arrived. The physician put his
ear to the Senator's chest; not a heart beat
! could he detect. He raised t!:e eyelids:
the fixed aud glassy stare of death was in
the pupils. Dr. Stallard shook his own
j head and walked away. Then, in the
: gentlest way, be turned to Mrs. Stanford,
who had never once taken her eyes from
him, and said to her:
"It is too late, Mrs. Stanford; I can do
nothing for him."
The shock was so great that the stricken
wife was unable to utter a word. Not a
tear came. She seemed to ba summoning
I all her resolution to endilre the ordeal.
She walked uptothe deathbed and planted
along and loving kiss upon the still lips.
Then she threw herself on a lounge, buried
her face in her hands and gave way to her
overwhelming crfef.
THE STRICKEN HOME.
A few minutes after tho death of Sena
tor Stanford the widow was Joined by her
nieces, Mrs. Edward R. Taylor aud Miss
Jennie Lathrop, the latter a little girl 9
years of ape. the daughter of Charles
| Lathrop. The Senator's private secre
| tary, Herbert C. Nasb, also dressed quickly
and joined the sorrowing circle of mourn
ers. He at once busied himself sending
! dispatches to the Senator's relatives and
Intimate friend?, and Mr. Charles Lathrop,
Mrs. Stanford's brother, was on« of the
first persons summoned to Menla Park.
Captain Smith was the first to arrive at
the house of mourning. He was called
out of his bed at 1 :30 a. m. and was deeply
shocked at the news that his old frit-nd
and former business partner had so sud
denly expired. He did not lose a moment's
time, but hurriedly dressed and drove
back with Hngan to tho Stanford bouse.
He arrived there soon after 2 o'clock in the
morning and offered such solace as he
could to Airs. Stanford, remaining with
her until morning, returning again later in
the day.
At 4:24 a.m. a special train from San
Francisco sturted with Charles Lathrop,
Mrs. Stanford's brother, on board. It ar
rived at Meulo Park at 5:3 G. A carriage
was in waiting for him at the station. It
was driven rapidly to the Stanford resi
dence, which is distant from the station
about a mile and a half.
On the first regular train from San Fran
cisco there arrived a large number of sym
pathizer?. They were chit-fly head officials
of the Southern Pacific Company. Among
them were Vice-president C. A. Crocker.
General Manager A. N. Towne, J. A. Fill
more, Director Steve Gage, A. C. Hunting
ton, Auditor and Controller Lansing,
Frank Shay (Mr. Stanford's former private
secretary), Mr. Schwerln and John Dag
gett.
Later trains brought other friends to the
house of mourning. Among those who
called during the day were: A. S. Bas3ett,
Alexander Badlam, William M. Gwiu,
Judeeand Mrs. McKenna, Mr. and Mrs!
Henry Dodge, Judge F. E. Spencer, S. F.
Liebes and Colonel George E. Gray, trus

-iv, and a number of the professors still
at that institution.
At noon two men from an undertaking
establishment arrived and proceeded to
embalm the remains and prepare them for
burial. The process was successfully per
formed and the body laid out in an upper
chamber, where no one was permitted to
view it save the immediate relatives and
friends of the family.
A Ion;: piece of black crape and length
of black silk ribbon was hung from the
main entrance. Witb'n the house people
came and went all day, treading softly as
though their footsteps might disturb the
dead. Several easy-chairs were placed on
the veranda, and there the visitors were
received by Mr. Lathrop and Mr. Nash.
The weather was beautiful. Never did
Menlo Park look so entrancing. The
grounds were rich with the perfume of
fragrant flower! 1 , and the birds chirped as
gleefully as though there were no such
thins: as death in the world. The veranda
balcony was a mass of climbing plants
and roses. Flower-baskets ar.d potted
plants were ranged in bewitching profu
sion on every hand, and japonica jura sent
up great shoots of delicious herbage. A

he rose aud lazily aDproiobeii the stranger,

to his conch on the mat. The doi was one
of the Senator's favorite animals.
Mrs. Stanford kept tierself striclly se
cludci, denying herself to all visitors save
the ladies and one ortwo gentlemen among
her most intimate friends. She bore her
self wonderfully under the circumstances,
tliougn, as the day waved, she yielded to
the overpowering mastery of the grief tlsat

THE EVENING BEFORE.
Senator Stanford's habit was to retire
early. He generally was in bed soon after
8 o'clock. On Tuesday afternoon his
coachman drove him over to San Carlo?,
where he visited Captain Smith and re
mained sometime. Upon returning, about
5 o'clock, he mentioned how much he had
enjoyed the ridf. He partook of a very
hearty supper. His meal consisted of nine
lamb chops, be eating, however, only the
lean portions.
Ho then dictated to his private secretary,
Herbert C. Nash, a business letter. When
Mr. Nasn returned to the parlor with the
letter ready for the signature he found that
the Senator had gone to his sleeping-room.
His last letter, therefore, remains unsigned.
Among the various remedies which the
Senator was trying was the application of
the massage. This treatment he reocived
just before retiring for the night. He hart
a massage-man specially employed to rub
him. The process occupied about half an
hour on Tuesday night When his valet
left him he was asleep and breathingeasily.
THE CAUSE OF DEATH.
Dr. Stallard said the Immediate cause of
Senator Stanford's sudden death was
paralysis of the henrt. His general ail
ment had been locoinotor-atiixia, or in
ability to move. There was no evidence
of apoplexy. The chief trouble with Sen
ator Stanford was that he thougtit lie
knew more about himself i'.ian all the doc
tors, and was too much addicted to trying
all sorts of remedies and all sorts of doc
tors.
"I would say," remarked Dr. Stallard,
"that Mr. Stanford died of a complication
of doctors. He was always experimenting
with himself. His last remedy was a
good one, but he ought to have begun its
application two years ago. His last mis
take was attempting to seek relief by corre
spondence. Every week a statement of his
condition was written to Dr. Salisbury,
in New York City, and if there was to be'
any variations of the treatment the changes
were directed by letters from New York.
For a man in the condition Mr. Stanford
was in this watt certainly exceedingly
risky. His physician shoald have seen
him regularly to observe the progress of
the casp. A year or more ago he subjected
himself to the treatment of a spiritualist
doctor from Los G;itos, who called on him
every morning to prescribe for him. At
that time the patient was taking the very
worst kind of fond. His condition then
was growing hourly worse instead of
better.
"Had I been called sooner'than 1 was on
Tuesday night I do not think I could have
afforded him any relief. His death coming
in tiie wav it did could not have been
averted. His vital powers had been
sapped.'
FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS.
The funeral will be held at 1 o'clock on
Saturday afternoon. This was all that
■was definitely settled yesterday. Iler
friends avoided ulstresslne Mis. Stanford
yesterday with any inaulrlrs coucernlngthe
obsequies. She signified, however, her de
sire that Saturday should oe fixed for the
funeral.
In accordance with a request made by
Mr. Stanford when he was in Europe last
i year his pal!-bearers will consist of a dele
| gation of the oldest engineers in the ser
i vice of the .Southern Pacific Company.
I The Senator held this class of m*n in great
esteem. His regard for them bordered on
the affectionate. The selection of the pall
bearers will be made to-day. Tiiere will
also bo a number of honorary pall-bearers.
A telegram was sent to the serjeant-at
arms of the United State? Senate yester
day notifying him of the death. It is
I ordinarily the function of that official to
attend to the funf-ral arrangements .of de- :
ceusad United Status Senators. He it Is
who designates the names of the Senators
who shall represent the Senate on such
| occasions. lie will probably name those
I Senators who are now on the coast— White
' and Dolpb.
The funeral services will bs held In the
I university chapel at Palo Alto ami the
] remains will be deposited in the Stanford
mausoleum In Slonlo Park, about half a
mile from the university. To the same
mausoleum will be removed the remains of
his son, which now rest in a vault erected
close to the Stanford residence.
The railroad offices in the building at
Fourth and Townsend streets will be
closed all day on Saturday.
The railroad station at Menlo Park was
draped yesterday in black and white cloth,
and flags were displayed at half mast in all
the neighboring towns.
THE STANFORD MAUSOLEUM.
An exquisite work of art is the Stanford
mausoleum which has just been completed
after two years' labor a*, a cost of $164,000.
It is the most magnificent sepulchral
monument on the Pacific Coast. By a s;id
aud strange coincidence tho lettering on
the slabs on the inner tombs was only
completed the day before Senator Stanford
died.
The mausoleum is an oblong building,
the design adhering closely to the purest
type of Grecian architecture. The ma
terial is white niarb!e and polished
granite. lonic pillars ornament the front,
roar and sides, set cjose in to the
wall. Over the heavy bronze door is a
tablet on which the names of the three
members of the family are carved in
raised letters.
Tho upuer panels of the door are inter
laced with fancy bronze filagree work,
through which a view of the interior can
be obtained. Three marble tombs are in
line. The right-hand one is intended for
the son. The inscription reads :
: Lkland Stanford Jr., •
: Born In Mortality, •
May 14, 1868. ;
I'assed to Immortality, •
March 18, 1884.
The next tomb is intended for Mrs. Stan
ford and the inscription is:
II Jane L. Stanford, ;
: Bora In Mortality, •
; August 25, 1828, •
: Passed to Immortality. ■
The left hand on« is for Senator Stan
ford, but the inscription is veiled by three
steel boxes piled up in front and evidently

PROPERTY AND WILL.
Senator Stanford has always had due re
gard for the future disposition of his vast
wealth. lie made several wills, wnich
were .-successively changed owing to the
deaths of relatives, the institution of the
university, etc.
The last will is stated to have been exe
cuted about a year ago at Palo Alto. It
was drawn by the firm of Wilson & Wil
son, the partner of Kuwell J. Wilson, who
has been ill for the past ten weeks, hav
ing principal charge of the draughting.
: The contents of the instrument will, of
course, not be formally made known until
after the funeral, but it is generally under
stood that practically everything has been
left to the widow for enjoyment and con
trol during her lifetime. The executors
are said to be Stephen T. Gaee and Her
bert C. Nash, the private secretary of the
testator, with Mrs. Stanford as coexecu
tor.
The university was Senator Stanford's
chief care latterly and it is supposed that
it will ultimately receive the bulk of the
estate. Mrs. Stanford has derided views
regarding the institution and of late
months has been manifesting a purpose of
familiarizing herself more and mure with
the practical workings of the various de
partments.
The Senator entertained certain designs
for elaborating and enlarging the uni
versity buildings. These designs are said
to have been shared by Herbert Nash, his
private secretary, and this lends a certain
color to the belief that Xa^h has been ap
pointed executor. Mr. Nash is a young
man and an Englishman and ha* shown
much energy and tact in his confidential
capacity.
Stephen T. Gape was accounted the late
Senator's financial agent. It is thought
that his part of the executorship, if he
should turn out to have been appointed to
fill that position, will have to do with the
disposition of the Senator's interests in
the Southern Pacihc Railroad Company:
The variety of the interests in which
Senator Stanford was engaged makes it
difficult to estimate the vast extent of his
fortune. He probably died worth $30,000,
--000, if the university property be included.
LOCAL SENTIMENT.
The tidings of the sudden death of
Seuetor Stanford aroused general inter
est in this city yesterday morning. His
name is such a household word that, al
though the failing state of his health was
known, the news fell with a shock upon
the community.
The flag on the Stanford residence on
the corner of California and Powell
streets was suspended at half mast, while
blnck crape scarfs fluttered from the great
eu trance doors.
The flag on the Hopkins Art Institute was
also at halfmast,' and that of the Stanford
stables buildingon the cornerof Powell and
California streets. The same mark of
respect was displayed in the position of
flags all over the city, including a number
of foreign flags nt halfmast.
People whispered to one another "Stan
ford is dead," and the mere fact seemed to
brine; with it an impressiveness born of
the familiarity of the name. A sense of
loss, as of some prominent landmark,
seemed to characterize the general senti
ment.
In business circles the. intelligence was
a general topic of conversation and men
were quick to recall the most publc
spirited acts of the dead statesman. Little
I was said of his connection with trans
portation, but his university aad his cul
ture of the hnrs"-br?edii!2 Interest, his
residence and vineyard in California were
all freely commented upon.
At the railroad offices in the big building
on the corner of Fourth and Townscnd
streets the employes appeared overshad

As usual in cases of this kind, the subor
dinates dki not feel free to discuss their
late employer with outsiders, having re
gard tn tbe sentiments of those in power.
But they felt the loss and discussed it
ainoug themselves, some sppcnlatively
wondering whether it would affect the
even tenor of their own way.
But here and there an old employe
would be found who forgot srlf in regret
at losing an old friend, and was not back

the man and his grief at his loss. These
were largely among the humbler employes
—the brakeiuen and engineers, with other
hard workers in the railroad army.
A large number of people sent dis
patchus of sympathy to Mrs. Stanford, and
it is expected that many will attend the
funeral services on Saturday, going down
by the 10:40 a.m. train, whicn will run
right into the university grounds and stop
within 100 feet of the chapel, where the
services are to be held.
MR. DAGGETT'S PRESENCE.
Mint Superintendent Daggett railed on
Director Gage on Tuesday afternoon and
inquired for Senator Stanford, saying be
desired to pay his respects to liim. Mr.
Gage told him that the Senator was at
.Mfiilu Park, and added that lie was going
down tn see him on Wednesday morning
and would be glad to have Mr. Dageett
acconiDany him. An appointment was ac
cordingly made to go down, on the train
which left yesterday morning.
Mr. Daggett is the possessor of a num
ber of choice Indian curing which he de
sired to present to the Palo Alto Univer
sity museum. When he arose yesterday
morning he filled a basket with the treas
ures, inteudins to give them to Mr. Stan
ford.
He took the banket with him to the
j depr, and finding he had time to eat his
breakiast ut a restaurant before the de
parture of the traiq, he left the basket in
the. depot. While waiting for his break
fast to be served he picked up The Call
nnd saw Senator Stanford's picture. Run
ning his eyes to the beading, he was
greatly shocked to learn for the first time
that the Senator had died on tlie previom
midnight.
When Mr. Daaeett met Mr. Gage at the
train he told him that under trie clrcum
stmees he thought he ought not to go
down to Menlo Park. Mr. Gage advised

him to go along and he went, but the !
bssiret of curios wa« left behind.
BLACK RYAN'S MEMORIES.
A prominent official down at the rail
road offico on the corner of Fourth and
Townsand streets in diseu3?ing the demise
of Senator Stanford said :
"The Senator's deistli will make no '
changes down here. Men are retained iv |
their places by oaf. ability and even if they
have obtained t!:eir positions by influence
; of one or another direeior this fact be-!
comas subordinated to the fact of their
efficiency. 11. V. Iluntington was put j
j liere by C. I. duntiugton, bnt he is under
; the will of the general stockholders and
holds his office by merit, however he may
have got there. Xo one ia the building is
recognized as n Huntincton mm or a Stan
ford mail when it comes down to work.
"If he is not efficient he is superseded and
the next man takes his place. The work
must be done. You can state that no one
is alarmed in the building that this even:
might causo him to lose his place. When
Mrs. Searles died the same rumors ob
tained, but were not justified by the event.
"As to Senator Stanford's successor as
president of the Central Pacific that is a
small matter. The Central Pacific exists
only in Us corporate entirely, and Senator
Stanford has not performed any duties in
connection with it for the last two years.
He has not been to the building in the last
two years. Anything that had to be done
was done by the vice-presidents.
"When any of us saw Senator Stanford
latterly we would never talk business with
him. To begin with lie was very deaf, and
it was a task to talk with him. It was
like telegraphing, and one naturally used
the fewest possible words. Then, again,
he would not understand the details of the
business; he did not keep posted as to
them, and we did not refer anything to
him."
E. Black Ryan, attorney of the tax de
partment of the Southern Pacific Railroad,
contributed some interesting reminiscences
of the dead Senator.
Mr. Ryan was private secretary of Sen
ator Stanford from IS6B, when the road
was in its first exciting period, until 1572,
since when he has remained in the service
of the company and has maintained inti
mate relations with the Senator.
Probably no one exists who could give a
more interesting idea of the Senator's at
titude as to public and private matters.
Mr. Ryan knew him in moderate circum
stances and knew him in his wealth, and
only about a week ago visited him at
MenlD Park.
A vivid impression on his mind is the
winter of 1868. when he went ovf r to Og
den to join Senator Stanford. The Cen
tral Pacific was tlien racing with the
Union Pacific toward Promontory. Stan
ford, tie says, was keenly excited. He
remembers seeing him standing in the
open and looking toward the Black Dills,
whence he oredicted a storm which would

hinder his rivals' work. 110 would go
down to the camp and sleep in the big tent
with only a buffalo robe to cover him, yet
never despaired of ultimate success. One
day Ryan had been telling him about the
tombstone epitaph where the inscription
of a sailor read : "Here lie I, John Mug 2,
a* snug as a bug in a rug," beside which
was written by an envious enmrnde ;
"Ilpre lie I, George Tugiier, a greu deal
snugger thau that there slugger." Stan
ford, who was reposing in the tent put his
nose out of his buffalo robe, saying with a
chuckle to Ryan : "I'm a great deal snug
2er than that there slugger," alluding to
his private secretary.
Mr. liran ran the construction work
until June, 1-SCO, paying out nearly
$2,000,000.
Mr. Stanford wanted several leading
Mormons to undertake his grading. They
were Bishop Benson of Logan, Cash.
County, Bishop West of Osden, and Presi
dent Lorin Farr, Mayor of Ogden. They
finally consented. President Farr came
here a few days ago and hud a lona talk
over eld times with Senator Stanford, who
was uleased to see him. Farr Is now at
Holhs.
"Senator Stanford," said Mr. Ryan,
' "was no good at all at details. He took
I the broadest, loftiest view of things. Yet
his conclusions were Generally justified by
i results.
"1 remember in ISG9 when the matter o{
a terminus of the railroad in San Fran
cisco was in doubt. Senator Stanford went
| down to the (not of Market street, opposite
I Goat Island, and said, 'Here i-> the proper
terminus to accommodate all people, in
cluding the shippers/ and his judgment
held.
"I was acquainted with him in 1857 in
Sacramento when he was comparatively a
I poor man. He was elected Governor in
! ! 18C1. lie was always considered a kindly
; nature'! man. From my experleuce with
him as private secretary I can say that he
would as soon sue a brakeman with a
grievance as a millionaire, and if it were
possible to redress his wrong, without
interfering with immediate authority, ho
would do so. In any case he would hear
the circumstances and dismiss the com
plainant with a hope that all would b«
well.
"The original idea of his college was
born at the death of his son. If it had
been carried out as then intended it would
have cost more than all the colleges of the
world together. This is another instance
of his exalted ideas.
"I saw him a week ago. Apart from the
fact that he had to be assisted to walk he
seemed in good health, and said nothing to
suggest anything else. I remember there
was one of his horses had something the
matter with his hoof and be insisted upon,
seeing him. He was assisted down ths
outside stairs and the horse was made to
turn up his foot, which, the Senator in
spected closely. 'I know what is the mat'
lei,' lie said to the veterinary surgeon pres
ent, and then explained that be had
studied the subject under the highest liv
ing authorities and had dissolved many &
I hoof to ascertain the arrangement of the
various layers.
"Senator Stanford was not a reader of.
light literature. lie read Huxley, Carlyle,
Herbert Spencer and was specially inter
ested in works on political economy. j He
always read the newspapers and liked see
ing everything that was said about him.
It seemed to give him a better idea how to
deal with men if he understood how he
was regarded. I remember clipping out
columns of matter and sending them to
him when be was East.
"As to spiritualism Senator Stanford
did not believe in the supernatural theory.
He thought the phenomena were wonder
ful, but that natural laws would be found
out to account for everything. He gave
way a great deal in the matter to Mrs.
| Stanford, whose life was largely shattered
I by the loss of her son. She might have a
I bust of her boy in her room and might be-
I lieve that she could communicate with
j him, but 1 believe that was only the
natural yearning of the natural heart, the
natural exhaust or vent, so to speak.
"A great deal of misunderstanding has
prevailed about the Governor's position In
! this company. Governor Stanford never
j wished to be president of the Southern
j Pacific. His one ambition was to be presi-
I dent and remain president of the Central
Pacific and that ambition he realized.
